Tea nose, moderately strong. Clear amber, thin yellow head, good lacing. Hiney and tea flavor, balanced, sessionable. Solid English Pale, hardly recognizable as an IPA, even an English one.

getrunken im Herbst 2012 als Fuller's IPA
Eines meiner ersten IPAs und dann gleich mal eines von der Insel. Es hatte tolle grasige und zitronige Aromen, war mir damals aber etwas zu grob. Nichtsdestotrotz ein tolles Bier mit einem Blumenstrauß an Aromen und einem herben Körper, der eine Freude ist -wenn mans herb mag.

(bottle) Clear golden amber with loose white head. Nice aroma - orangey citrus and pine. Medium body, quite fizzy. Starts with a nice balance of tangy citrusy fruit and light malty sweetness and develops pine and spice notes on the way to a reasonable bitter finish. Overall, an interesting and tasty beer that doesn’t quite all hang together properly.

Fra fat på The Star Tavern, London SW1, pubcrawl med Julian i jan-11: en deilig ipa som på ingen måte gjør skam på Fuller’s. Men med et vitamininnhold på 5% må man være litt forsiktig på begynnelsen av en pubcrawl. En smaksrik og balanser ipa (kunne gjerne hatt litt mer humle?) i den engelske tradisjonen.

04/05 0.5 l bottle, courtesy of ogivlado, thanks for sharing! It poured slightly hazy dark golden body with medium sized head. Fine orange and peach aroma. Sweetish biscuit malty flavor with lemony and herbal hops. Medium bodied with fine biscuit and peach finish, which had lot of herbal dry hops in the aftertaste. A pretty decent bitter, nothing stellar but at least was enjoyable.
